Visitation night at Club Maenad...

We went to the Cruxshadows show at Valentines tonight.

I'm sure once the overload of awesome has had the night to process, I'll come up with a means of expressing it, but for right now, all I can quite manage, is a bit of exhausted chair-boogie while I wait for myself to wind down enough that I can hope for sleep sometime tonight. Small venue, not a highly advertised show, so it wasn't crowded beyond belief, and oh, did Himself ever grace the dance floor... not uncommon for that band, so I'm told, but still -- Club Maenad bypassed the dance floor in favour of the main stage tonight! Valerie, the new guitarist is just about the cutest thing I've seen, and... well, let's just say there wasn't a single creature up there in the band, whom I'd have thrown out of bed.

But no, I can't get started now, or I'll just babble on all night, and never sleep.

This is me, being 'good' now.
Dayum, that was a nice early birthday present!

I still have a love/hate relationship with their song Birthday though. I told Matt that he'd bloody well feel the same, once HE was 40 years old. He laughed at me, so I whacked him in the knee with my walker. That'll learn 'im.

Speaking of which, my birthday is in 12 days -- what should I get up to, d'you think?



If I get anything worthwhile, I'll bang them up here for folks to see... but I honestly don't expect to, given that they're meant to be little more than medium experiments.

*wails*

Why can't I finish any of my holiday fics? I did Allie's and [info]oshunanat's is with the beta, but now I'm all scattered; I have a third of [info]littleblackbow's finished and maybe half of [info]accioslash's. I'm not being very speedy these days! It's very disheartening not to be able to work on anything for more than an hour without losing interest. On the plus side, [info]oshunanat's and [info]littleblackbow's fics are awfully fun; I did lots of banter and in [info]littleblackbow's case, tons of sly little rock 'n roll references and pure lunacy. I LOVE writing lunacy. Plus, it puts Draco off. ; ) If any of you have the urge to beta me through these tough holiday times, please let me know.

Also, I discovered someone, whom I dislike and who has a history of outing sockpuppets, has created a sockpuppet. I mean, I caught a bald-faced lie. It's a minor thing, but it's definitely sock behavior, and . . . you know, I don't give a shit about socks. Socking has never particularly bothered me in the past--it's the hypocrysy that annoys me. But I don't know how to screencap and I certainly don't like wank or people who think this sort of shit is fun. But considering his/her past behavior, it sort of gets me steamed up. *wrinkles nose* Oh, wankers. I truly hope you eat your own and he/she will be the next course. Meh. It's just been itching, you know? Like seeing someone steal and you think, "Should I tell someone about that? What's my responsibility, here? Who's being hurt?" and for now . . . no one's being hurt, so I suppose I'll just shut my stupid mouth. It doesn't make any difference anyway. But for Christ's sakes, if seeing someone else sock makes you piss your pants in anger, why the hell would you turn around and do it yourself? Also, how great a world is this that I can mesh socks and pissing your pants into one sentence? And can we get a bra in there as well? Because I like that sort of thing. :D

And I signed up for two more classes today, hurrah! Well, sort of hurrah. I suppose the sooner I get it over with, the better.

P.S. If you didn't sign up for holiday cards a few posts back, YOU BETTER. There are some of you I really wanna send stuff to! And I feel weird sending people things if I haven't been given permission, you know?

Thanks!

Great set of discussions today -- thank you to all who chimed in. (And sorry that my work of day had me away from the computer for longer than I'd anticipated. I'd intended to jump in a lot more often than I was able to do, but still enjoyed reading the interplay.

(In case it's not clear, I crossposted this morning's invitation to debate between my Cluegirl accounts at LJ and IJ, and also to the LJ where I pretend to be an actual grown up with responsibilities and a career and suchlike. The threads of discussion were similar in all three, but different enough to have made the cross-post well worthwhile.)

Cheers!

For the anthropologists / biologists / theologists / utter geeks on my flist: an invitation

Homosexuality might be (in part,) a biological failsafe against population density outstripping available resources.

Discuss and debate.

Yes, I know. I know it's not that simple -- the opening statement is just meant to get the ball rolling. Bring all the data you want to the table, and whatever theories you fancy as well. Let's have it all... except the tablebanging religious dogma please, because that just gives people gas, you know.

Pfuck! What's happened to Skyehawke???

Is it gone? Really gone -- gone? Because the last time it was 'kinda gone', I lost dozens of feedback comments, and... well, fine, call me shallow and all, but I'm not all that sanguine about my having the heart to rebuild or re-update there if it's lost again. As [info]amanuensis1 says, it would be another triumph of entropy over creation, and it would make me very very sad indeed.

And that's not even getting INTO the number of my favorite stories which I have only ever located there!

No, Skyehawke being kaput is Not Allowed. It makes the Maiden Brighid cry, and that's never a good thing.
Not allowed at ALL.

Someone tell me it ain't so... please?

Edit: I was tired and panicking last night when I made this post. There is nothing wrong with Semagic, I just typed in the wrong bloody word. It's Skyehawke that has me in a froth -- please forgive my error.
